This bios update is sweet. Hit 600+ FPS looking at that ass in Sky Diver.

No. AGESA Version is Combo-AM4 1.0.0.4

What I noticed was increase in FPS in gaming. Everything else seems the same.... fast.

Thank you. I was just wondering if it was worth the risk of doing.

No problem, would say the risk is null or no more than at any other time. This is best of the 1.0.0.4 bios I have run to date (including beta's & released versions)

That's a fake OC (check GamersNexus video on undervolting Ryzens), you don't have enough voltage, so your CPU doesn't actually provide OC performance, despite reporting OC freq. I get 7600+ points in CR20 and I have Ryzen 9 3900 non-X at 4.4Ghz and 7300+ at 4.2Ghz.

Little problem, I'm not undervolting my cpu. If you have something to share about how to get 7600+ points could you provide us with that ?

You running PBO or manual overclock? Try upping voltage a bit, see if your scores improve. If it does, that means you don't have enough voltage right now. I personally wouldn't go over 1.35V. Other than that, it's pure silicon lottery. You might just got unlucky with your specific CPU bin. Only 6% of all Ryzen 9 3900X are capable of 4.2Ghz at 1.25V , even less are capable of 4.3/4.4Ghz.

Did you switch Ethernet connection and see the lag again?
With my CH8F the Aquantia was a big source of trouble.
Back to Intel and Steam, FB, Gaming etc is stable.
